It was December 2022, as a big dream came true. Since Lufthansa got their first Boeing 747-8, I dreamed to sit there on the first seat, right in the nose of this iconic plane.
When Japan reopened its borders for tourists and released all Covid-measures, I took my chance and booked a flight in Lufthansa’s First Class to Tokyo Haneda.
This 12-hours flight from Frankfurt to Tokyo cost me 111.000 Miles and about 300€ of taxes with Miles&More.
The night before my flight, I slept inside an Airport-Hotel to be at the airport really early in the morning. I started my First-Class-Adventure with a visit inside Lufthansa’s famous First Class Terminal. Unfortunately, it was really crowded that morning, but then it was time for boarding and I got a ride with a Porsche to my Boeing 747-8.
Yeah, there I was, right in front of these huge engines and this beautiful Jumbo Jet…. I was so excited.
If you want to know, how my flight in Lufthansa’s First Class was, you can check out my Flightreview now.
A little Spoiler: This flight was totally worth the Miles, and I had the best and friendliest crew of all my flights 😊

I am not overly fond of the first class on the 747 as it is too open to other passengers.
I always wonder what everyone thinks is so great about that breakfast. I admit, the scrambled eggs are freshly made. but apart from that there's only cold cuts and muesli. There aren't even some sausages, and I'm not even talking about warm food. There is only that breakfast, even if you arrive at afternoon.
Flying SQ, for example, you can order lobster for breakfast even in business class. what a difference
Hi, i'm flying on the 13th from Brussels to Tokyo with a 1h40 layover in Frankfurt. Is this enough to make it? Did you have any delays or luggage missing? Reviews on Facebook and Instagram are really negatieve so i'm freaking out. Would be thankful to know your experience on this🙏
I Have Not Flew Whit B747-8.I Have Many On The B747-400 Whit KLM And QANTAS.Happy New Year.Great Work
Hi new subscriber here
ordinäres Toast zum Kaviar…? was waren das noch Zeiten in der First der LH als es noch Toast Melba dazu gab…😅
nice video but no roses in First! And stupid LH with their polluting 'old' planes (744 and 744 because of their first class…)
Ich mag deinen Kanal wirklich sehr! Du scheinst sehr sympathisch zu sein und deine entspannte Art gefällt mir sehr! Es macht wirklich Spaß dir zuzuschauen 👍
We flew on Lufthansa 747-8 from MIA to FRA a week before Christmas. Economy, but still a nice flight.
Great video, thanks for sharing! ✈️
Absolutely lovely video 👍 thanks for sharing
Great airplane, but the host guy… Big Nooooo! Find something else to do!!
Hi buddy, nice review! I flew the return trip, which took almost 15hrs! Unfortunately 1A/F were already taken so I settled with 3A. Great flight throughout, flight review coming soon…
In my personal opinion, the services provided by Lufthansa are very basic for first class, starting from the first class lounge to the plane, the services in this video are like business class on world class airlines such as Qatar Airlines, SingaporeAir, Qantas, JAL, Korean Air, Asiana, ANA etc. Honestly don't waste your money because I don't think this flight is special.
um Gotteswillen…das ist doch keine First Class😅
Thank you for sharing..
wow dirty carpet in the cabin … unbelievable …
helsinki-tokyo for 4600 eur, check it out 🙂
Can you keep those pajamas though?
Great video greetings from the United Kingdom 🇬🇧
